While I was cleaning my garage I came across many items that I have collected over the past 40+ years. The parts and pieces will fit the Austin Healy Sprite 1958-1969 or MG Midget1961-1979, unless stated otherwise. These are new tapered roller bearing sets that will convert a Sprite or Midget from the original ball bearings that came on these cars. This set of bearings will require the castle nut to be ground down slightly (about 1/16\") in order to have enough clearance for the cotter pin. I have been using tapered roller bearings on the Sprites and Midgets I have had for the last 40+ years without any problems. There is and has been discussion on many forums about converting the front to tapered roller bearings. Some say you must use the spacer that was in place for the ball bearings, others say this is not necessary. I, personally, fall into the second group. As I already stated I have used this setup for over 40 years, all without the spacer, first when I raced these cars and lately for high performance street cars.
Mini/SpridgetMania\'sprice for this same setupsells for around $100.00 PER SIDE. I am asking less for my complete set than they are for 1 side.
I will combine shipping for multiple items.
Feedback: Since eBay no longer allows sellers to leave negative or neutral feedback for buyers here is my feedback policy: If the high bidder is unhappy with an item I sell and simply leaves negative or neutral feedback for me I will block them from bidding on any more of my items. I will try and resolve any problems with any item I sell before leaving feedback.
Paypal customers: It has been brought to my attention that if I ship to an address other than the registered Paypal address the buyer can claim to Paypal that they never received the item and request a refund which would be taken from my Paypal account without question. I will ONLY ship to a confirmed Paypal address. If you want the item shipped to an address other than your confirmed address you will have to pay by another method. Sorry, I\'m just trying to protect myself from unscrupulous bidders.
